Braille tablet
BODY:
Sile O'Modhrain and her colleagues at the University of Michigan are working on a full-page tactile display screen that refreshes as you read it.
EXTENDED BODY:
Equations, science, maths and musical scores could all become more useable and engaging for the visually impaired with the development of a full-page Braille tablet.
Braille is the system of raised dots that helps blind and partially sighted people to read by touch. It's named after the French inventor Louis Braille, who lost his eyesight in a childhood accident and came up with the first version of his code in 1824, aged 15.
Most of the digital technology that displays Braille does so line by line, but soon equations, science, maths and musical scores could all become more accessible with the development of a full-page Braille tablet.
Sile O'Modhrain and her colleagues at the University of Michigan are working on this tactile display screen that refreshes as you read it. She talks with Simon Morton:

China's football revolution
BODY:
Chinese clubs are buying some of the world's best football players. We ask The Guardian's chief sports correspondent Owen Gibson what's behind this recent surge of interest in the beautiful game.
EXTENDED BODY:
There's a football revolution going on in China. The country's influence on the world game and its economics has never been greater.
Earlier this year the Chinese transfer record (the amount a club pays for a single player) was broken 3 times in the space of 10 days.
The record rose from the NZ$52 million paid by Jiangsu Suning for Chelsea's Ramires to the $80 million paid by the same club for Shakhtar Donetsk's Alex Teixeira in just over one week!
Meanwhile, total transfer spending of $500 million by Chinese clubs over the winter transfer window outstripped the English Premier league for the first time.
Owen Gibson is the chief sports correspondent of The Guardian and has been writing about China's surging influence in the world game.

13:25
Online cancer hoaxes
BODY:
Some people are going to amazing lengths, inventing followers and doctoring photos, to support their fake stories of illness and human tragedy on the internet. Rachel Monroe is a journalist who's written about internet illness hoaxes, and the community committed to uncovering them.
EXTENDED BODY:
There's a famous New Yorker cartoon from 1993 that shows a dog sitting at a computer screen saying to another dog 'On the internet nobody knows you're a dog'.
Things aren't always quite as they seem on the interweb, as journalist Rachel Monroe discovered when she wrote about internet illness hoaxes and the community committed to busting them.
Because there are people online who concoct intricate stories about fake illnesses and tragedy. They research medical conditions, buy equipment to fake photos, and invent a whole community of followers.
All this can be done so convincingly that it encourages other real people to join in. And the people behind the hoaxes don't necessarily do all this for any financial gain, but for the sympathy and attention it gets them.
Rachel Monroe talks to This Way Up's Simon Morton about how technology enables these hoaxes, the ethical dilemmas facing people committed to stopping them, and the phenomenon of 'Munchausen's by internet'.

Chin evolution
BODY:
Why we humans have chins. That jutting piece of bone at the front of your face makes us unique in the animal kingdom. But nobody really knows why we've evolved to have them! James Pampush studies Evolutionary Anthropology, and chins, at Duke University.
EXTENDED BODY:
We humans are unique in many ways. As bipedal hominids our powers of thought and language and emotion set us apart from other mammals.
We also cook our food, compulsively check our digital devices, and have a fondness for ethically sourced, artisanal produce which would be the envy of many in the animal kingdom (if only animals could experience envy, that is).
We're also unique in another way; our lower jaw protrudes outwards to the bit of bone we call a chin. And sorry, despite much debate in the office, your cat does not have a chin...we think...maybe...OK?!
Mysteriously, nobody really seems to know why we humans have evolved to have chins. James Pampush studies Evolutionary Anthropology, and chins, at Duke University.
